Market development
{{'fund.detail.general.perDate' | labelize:[ fundDate(fund.fundInvestmentExplanations.date,'llll') ]}}In August, the US equity market was the strongest market with +2.8%, setting another new record. This despite the country's trade dispute with more or less the rest of the world and the ongoing turbulence of the Trump presidency. The American economy however is doing fine, with high earnings, low unemployment and a strong US dollar. European equity markets on the contrary had a tough month. Political risks are on the rise again, with budgetary discussions in Italy and the ongoing Brexit uncertainty. Emerging markets also declined. A range of countries is facing problems, but Turkey sparkled the downturn as the central bank refused to hike interest rates, which caused a sell-off in the currency. This had a spill-over effect to other emerging markets. Bond markets showed mixed results. Italian government bonds and emerging markets bonds lost, while traditional safe havens like German Bunds were in favor.

|---|---|---|
Currency policy

Dividend policy
This share class of the fund does not distribute dividend.
ESG Integration policy
Robeco Multi Asset Sustainable primarly invests in Robeco and RobecoSAM funds. Sustainability is a decisive factor in the fund-selection process. The portfolio consists of impact (SDG), thematic and sustainable funds. ESG integration is applied in the full composition of the portfolio. In the Robeco and RobecoSAM funds Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) factors are systematically integrated in the highly disciplined investment process, by using the wealth of ESG research of over 4500 companies from the annual RobecoSAM Corporate Sustainability Assessment. Next to ESG integration, extensive exclusions and negative screening are applied. Robeco conducts proxy voting and engagement activities. The voting policy is based on the International Corporate Governance Network objectives. Engagement takes two forms: a pro-active approach on financially material ESG issues, and a reactive approach on breaches of the UN Global Compact principles by investee companies. The overall portfolio plays into specific sustainability themes and aims to have a substantially better ESG profile than the benchmark, a lower environmental footprint (GHG, energy, waste, water) and a positive exposure to companies that contribute to achieving the sustainable development goals (SDG).
Investment policy
Robeco Multi Asset Sustainable is an actively managed global multi-asset fund, fully focused on sustainability. The fund has a moderate risk profile and mainly invests in sustainable equity and bond funds of Robeco and RobecoSAM that meet the highest standards of sustainable investment. The portfolio management team can also use other investment instruments to enhance the risk-return profile of the fund.

The investment strategy also relies on the sustainability research of RobecoSAM. RobecoSAM is an investment specialist focused exclusively on Sustainability Investing with more than 20 years of experience in sustainability, thematic and impact investing.
Risk policy
Risk management is fully embedded in the investment process to ensure that the fund's positions remain within set limits at all times.
Expectation of fund manager
{{'fund.detail.general.perDate' | labelize:[ fundDate(fund.fundFacts.date,'llll') ]}}Currently, we prefer not to have too many outspoken positions in the portfolios. We expect that the positive sentiment in developed equity markets will continue. The earnings season showed that the majority of the companies have beaten the estimates. In August, we increased the equity weight in the portfolios with a small step. We prefer developed markets, and especially the US markets, over emerging markets. The latter will suffer the most from the escalating trade conflict, but individual countries like Turkey, Brazil and South Africa also have problems of their own. In the bond area, we are neutral on most categories, however not on high yield bonds. Although having an underweight position, we do see some light at the end of the tunnel for this asset class, without changing the weight in the portfolio as yet.
